Great walking tour! So much information and LOVED the ‘Learn More’ links included at the stops. In fact when we went to other areas on our trip we searched for walking tours by your company. Unfortunately there was not one available so did a different one and it was not nearly as good.
Visit the place where the Pilgrims landed! As one of the earliest English settlements in North America, Plymouth is an essential stop for any history lover. Get to know the Pilgrims, the Wampanoag who helped them, and learn what life was like in the New World. Plus, visit famous artifacts like Plymouth Rock and an exact replica of the Mayflower! Whether you want to dive deeper into American history, or simply want to stroll through a picturesque coastal town, Plymouth is a must-see.

The audio tour was somewhat confusing to follow. I’d pause it and it would start as soon as you moved. The voice in my ear made it difficult to communicate with others. Otherwise it provided helpful and interesting information. Although you could read most of the same information at the site.
Michael L
Great self guided tour learning about Plymouth and the Pilgrims, and the Mayflower, & much more. Loved that we could take as much time as we wanted and not get rushed along in a big group tour.
Lynn_K
We enjoy these self guided tours. It’s nice to be able to do side stuff during the tour and then pick right back up where you left off. This was shorter than previous ones we’ve done but was still vey informative and enjoyable.
